okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5589 Posts	Posted 12/26/2017 7:01 pm The "1" looks off as well. Out of the 300 or so items the seller has for sale right now, this is the only coin that he has. All the rest are tokens and trade items. I'd say that it has 11' pole marks all over it, or should have. How can there be that many bidders? Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21616 Posts	Posted 12/26/2017 8:00 pm The sellers heading refers to it as a "50 Cent Token Coin." The sellers self description states "We buy and sell tokens". All his feedback refers to buying tokens. I don't see how anyone could think this was a genuine coin and not a token. Also looks like experienced buyers bidding on it. PS: It has been reported on the Canadian Counterfeit Coin Forum so hopefully it will be removed before someone buys it. Edited by JimmyD 12/26/2017 8:06 pm Report this Post to the Staff
SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10458 Posts	Posted 12/26/2017 8:15 pm I reported it.... any dealer out there would unload a CAN$70,000 the proper way, if it was legit. The merging of the leaves with the fields is a dead-giveaway too. Here is a real one to compare to: http://www.bankofcanadamuseum.ca/co...2,3d0207.jpg "Discovery follows discovery, each both raising and answering questions, each ending a long search, and each providing the new instruments for a new search." -- J.
